...example, we ought to require every undergraduate to pass an armed combat test. That’s certainly relevant to our modern world and should be a proposed requirement in the field, “The United States and the World.” You would be astonished at the number of Harvard undergraduates who have never fired a semi-automatic firearm but can quote Hamlet.

But there are still a number of easy league games that may serve more as a chance to pad statistics and test young players than real competition. The Crimson will play Union, Quinnipiac, and Division-I newbie RPI twice—a sextet of games that Harvard could realistically win by a combined 50 goals. And it is this lack of a challenge that bothers the Crimson. “I think our league...
